This Is My Grown-Up Birthday List

So my birthday is just around the corner, and my friends and family keep asking me “what do you want for your birthday?” It seems like an easy question, but somehow I can never come up with something. How this is possible when I’m constantly coveting everything is beyond me, and yet I keep saying “I don’t know.”

I think the reality is that I tend to dream big. Perhaps a little too big when you’re talking about birthday presents. So here are the top 5 things on my real birthday wish-list (for today).

I’m starting with a softball. This one is realistic and I actually asked for it from my husband. Hope he took notes!

2. The classic Chanel 2.55

I will own one of these in my lifetime.

Updated 10.13 – I never make a promise I don’t intend to keep. I bought the bag (the exact one shown) on Monday as an early birthday present to myself and it arrived today. What a lovely birthday week.
